The century-old mill foundations and grinding wheels that dot the Hocking River’s edge serve as inspiration for The Mill. Part country, part heavy metal, this river retreat’s style is rustic industrial. Natural hickory ceilings, barn-beam mantle and wood-slice wall with logs gathered on this 2500-acre family farm, are highlighted by the steampunk lighting and riveted tile throughout. Hints of the old mill days are found in the feed sack art, riverfront rocking chairs and your own authentic millstone picnic table … the perfect place for your morning coffee or sundowner cocktail. The first-floor main bedroom has a woodsy country vibe, while a large gear chandelier and edgy metal accents on the tile bed wall and bathroom vanity in the second-floor loft pay homage to the industry that once thrived along the Hocking River.
You can enjoy the tranquility of the river or watch all of the wildlife that call this river home from any of several outdoor living areas. A comfy sofa and lounger on your private loft balcony look down to the large patio, hot tub, outdoor shower and firepit below. While nature beckons you outside, the heated floors welcome you back inside to snuggle up to the gas fireplace, clad in stone reminiscent of the old mill foundations. Tucked alongside this historic river’s edge, The Mill feels right at home in this cozy landscape.
